1COR 11:9 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

καὶ γὰρ

also for

Here, For indeed introduces a second basis for what Paul has claimed in 11:7, most specifically for the claim that “woman is the glory of man.” In 11:10. However, Paul gives the result of what he has claimed in 11:7 in 11:10. Because of this, in some languages 11:7–8 might seem like they interrupt the logic or argument. If that is true in your language, you could mark 11:7–8 as an interruption by using parentheses or some other natural form in your language. Alternate translation: “As another side note,” or “Also by the way,”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οὐκ ἐκτίσθη ἀνὴρ διὰ τὴν γυναῖκα, ἀλλὰ γυνὴ διὰ τὸν ἄνδρα

not /was/_created man because_of the woman but woman because_of the man

Again, Paul is speaking about a man and a woman. Just as in 11:8, these words could refer to: (1) the first man and woman that God created: Adam and Eve. In the story in Genesis 2:18–25, God has already made Adam. God then has Adam name all the animals, but there was no “helper” for Adam. God then makes Eve as a “helper” for Adam. Alternate translation: “the first man was not created for the first woman, but the first woman was created for the first man” (2) “men” and “women” in general. In this case, Paul would be referring to the relationship between males and females in general or to the specific relationship between husbands and wives. Alternate translation: “men were not created for women, but women for men” or “husbands were not created for wives, but wives for husbands”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

οὐκ ἐκτίσθη ἀνὴρ

not /was/_created man

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Paul uses the passive form here to focus on man, who is created, rather than focusing on the person doing the “creating.” If you must state who does the action, Paul implies that “God” does it. Alternate translation: “God did not create man”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

γυνὴ διὰ τὸν ἄνδρα

woman because_of the man

Here Paul omits some words that your language may require to make a complete thought. Paul omits these words because he stated them explicitly in the previous clause (was created). If your language does need these words, you could supply them from that clause. Alternate translation: “woman was created for the man”
